The accident occurred at about 12:50 p.m. after a Picatinny employee placed a call for advanced life support, base spokesman Tim Rider said in an email.

The injured officer was taken to Saint Clare's Hospital in Denville for treatment, and was later released, Rider said.

Rider didn't specify the officer's name in the email.

The driver of the second vehicle did not report any injuries, but the driver was taken to Saint Clare's Hospital in Dover as a precautionary evaluation, Rider said.

Other Picatinny officers were able to handle the advanced life support call, Rider said.

A certified traffic investigator with the Picatinny Police Department is investigating the accident, he said.

More information regarding the circumstances of the crash was not immediately available.
